The mean exam score for the first group of twenty examinees applying for a security job is 35.3 with a standard deviation of 3.6.

The mean exam score for the second group of twenty examinees is 34.1 with a standard deviation of 0.5. Both distributions are close to symmetric in shape.

Use the mean and standard deviation to compare the scores of the two groups.


Answer :

The scores of two groups can be compared using coefficient of variation;

Coefficient of variation (C.V.) = (Standard Deviation/ Mean) × 100%;

For Data set 1;

Standard deviation = 3.6

Mean = 35.3

C.V. = (3.6/35.3) × 100%;

       = 10.19%

For Data set 2;

Standard deviation = 0.5

Mean = 34.1

C.V. = (0.5/34.1) × 100%;

       = 1.46%
